Correct answer: 3

  1. Interpret the circuit

Since the battery has emf E=2 VE=2\,\text{V}E=2V and internal resistance r=23 Ωr=\dfrac{2}{3}\,\Omegar=32​Ω, the total power consumed in the entire circuit is the power delivered by the battery to all resistive elements including its internal resistance.

To compute that, we need the total current:

I=ERext+rI=\frac{E}{R_{\text{ext}}+r}I=Rext​+rE​

From the given circuit, the external equivalent resistance is

Rext=23 ΩR_{\text{ext}}=\frac{2}{3}\,\OmegaRext​=32​Ω

Hence total resistance of the whole circuit is

Rtotal=Rext+r=23+23=43 ΩR_{\text{total}}=R_{\text{ext}}+r=\frac{2}{3}+\frac{2}{3}=\frac{4}{3}\,\OmegaRtotal​=Rext​+r=32​+32​=34​Ω

  1. Find the circuit current

I=ERtotal=24/3=32 AI=\frac{E}{R_{\text{total}}}=\frac{2}{4/3}=\frac{3}{2}\,\text{A}I=Rtotal​E​=4/32​=23​A

  1. Find total power consumption

Total power consumed in the entire circuit is

P=EIP=EIP=EI

So,

P=2×32=3 WP=2\times \frac{3}{2}=3\,\text{W}P=2×23​=3W

(Equivalently, P=I2Rtotal=(32)2⋅43=3 WP=I^2R_{\text{total}}=(\frac{3}{2})^2\cdot \frac{4}{3}=3\,\text{W}P=I2Rtotal​=(23​)2⋅34​=3W.)

  1. Final answer

3 W\boxed{3\,\text{W}}3W​

  1. Comparison with stored answer

Stored correct answer = 333

Our derived answer also equals 333, so they agree.
